Introducing the Three Facets of HOPE!

This morning we begin to look at the second cornerstone for our much needed perseverance in times of great trouble, tribulation, and persecution. The second foundational principle to empower us to persevere through what ever the future holds is HOPE! Scriptural Hope is defined as the confident expectation with great joy and pleasurable anticipation of the fulfillment and reward of a promise given by God to His people. This morning we will begin a four week series examining the three facets of HOPE which empower the believer to endure hardship and continue in the faith of Christ with great resolve and perseverance regardless of the challenges and difficulties we may experience as faith Christians. The three facets of hope are remembering the LORD's past promises and provision fulfilled, experiencing the kind provision of God in the present, and looking expectantly to the future provision and fulfillment of all that God has promised to those who remain faithful.
